Philadelphia Higher Education Network for Neighborhood Development

Regional Visiting Scholars Program

The Community Development Studies & Education Department has a long history of engaging with visiting scholars and consultants in support of original community and economic development research.

In the continuing effort to work with academics in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, the department has developed a new Regional Visiting Scholars Program. Faculty employed at institutions in one of these three states or conducting research in the region are eligible to submit a proposal, and selected scholars will be compensated for the development of a discussion paper summarizing their research. More information can be found here.

Submissions are due by October 31, 2017, and successful applicants will be notified before the end of the calendar year. Please contact Keith Wardrip (215-574-3810 or keith.wardrip@phil.frb.org) with any questions.
